Posted December 24, 20177 yr God Kveld! Welcome to the stunning city of Sjan Tivor here in the Federal Republic of Ashton! Starting on Boxing Day will be the first of the 10th Anniversary contests. First up, if you couldn't already tell is Andra Chansen! Andra Chansen translates as "second chance" and that's what we're giving everyone. This contest is about digging through the archives and sending a song that you think deserves a second chance at success! Doesn't have to be one of your own entires, that's what YBO is for, and it can't be anything that was a 'hit' in it's original contest or ended up in TBO (inc. Rejects). A chance to dig out those classic "wrong semi" DNQs or songs you feel were hard done by at the time Stay peeled for confirmations dropping on the 26th but in the mean time, the BJSC mods would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas!!
December 24, 20177 yr Any excuse to be allowed to throw 5 Fine Frokner into the ring for another chance, eh Silas? x THIS LOOKS FUN, I'll probably try and send something that flopped for someone else, rather than sending something of my own as much as all of my entries obviously deserved to win.
December 24, 20177 yr I am going to scour the archives for something criminally underrated that I could never give its proper dues and I'm sure there's a load of those to choose from.
December 24, 20177 yr Well THIS should be interesting! Not really expecting anything of my entries on this one, the only song I can think of that I thought everyone did dirty would be "You Settle Me". That said, there were a LOT of songs in the ones I've been in that I thought people did dirty so... will think about this.

It would be ineligible if so.
December 25, 20177 yr I think 'Blood In Blood Out' sticks out as my most underrated entry that wasn't a DNQ/in a Rejects final so that's an option if I was to go for myself. Shall scour through some underrated gems courtesy of other countries before coming to a conclusion though, this should be fun ~
December 25, 20177 yr Not sure whether or not to revive another one of my old undeserved flops. I am tempted but like the OP said this isn't YBO. x
December 25, 20177 yr I think I'll go with some underrated foreign favourites here, looks very fun x Though I'll need to see what the definition of 'hit' is, top half of scoreboard? :thinking:
December 25, 20177 yr Author 5 Fine Frokner made it to the TBO semis, didn't it? It would be ineligible if so. Correct. 5FF is indeed ineligible. and was vindicated in PFSC anyway
December 25, 20177 yr Author I think I'll go with some underrated favourites here, looks very fun x Though I'll need to see what the definition of 'hit' is, top half of scoreboard? :thinking: Yes, top half = hit in standard BJSC terms.
December 25, 20177 yr Hmm, I think I'll go for someone else's but i'd have to have a proper look, I've got some old flops that might do better now I could go for.
December 25, 20177 yr besides i'm pretty sure there are other Ashtonise entries that Silas has raged about before that would need it more than 5FF
December 25, 20177 yr Author I will not be entering anything Ashtonise. Everything I think was robbed of a rightful victory was a 'hit' so isn't eligible! Aside from I Like That come to think of it.
December 25, 20177 yr Actually yeah I will go for a non-Persephonia entry (I have a couple of good ideas already). I know which of my old flops I'll be wheeling out if and when there is a YBO II though. xx
December 25, 20177 yr I have looked back through my EOY countdowns from the past couple of years and I have had SO many floppy faves, so I have also decided that I'll be avoiding anything of my own and attempt to give one of these justice.
December 25, 20177 yr Author Anything that didn't finish top half in it's contest or make TBO or TBO Rejects is eligible to be sent. It also doesn't have to be your own entry and I'd encourage that it isnt!
December 25, 20177 yr Could an updated list of TBO finalists be posted somewhere so we know which are ineligible? X
December 25, 20177 yr Hmm, I had an idea of sending someone else's entry that should have done well in rejects but I see they have mentioned it in this thread so they might be thinking of sending it might have to re-think if so :lol:
December 25, 20177 yr Okay I’m definitely sending someone else’s. Some of my favorite songs of all time flopped in BJSC and they need the respect they deserve :drama: The problem is... which one?
